Megadeth vs Annihilator

I hope this one has not been done yet.

Both are among my top favourite bands, and to many, Megadeth are better by far.

But i personally prefer ANNIHILATOR's sound. Much easier, less technical, and Joe Comeau's glass shattering vocals

Tough choice... I want to say Annihilator but they have crap singers and the lyrics are weak. So i gotta go with Megadeth.

overall Annihilator. however the only two Megadeth albums i like, Peace & Rust, piss all over anything Annihilator's ever done.

MEGADETH.

So your answer is Annihilator?

I can't decide.

I didn't know for sure because you threw in that praise for those two Megadeth albums. It sounded like you may have been undecided.

Annihilator has 1 great album (Alice In Hell) and the rest miss that mark for me. Megadeth have 4 albums I like. So my vote goes to Megadeth.

i just wanted to be fair to Megadeth, who have made their mark without question.

I would say MEGADETH. Both bands made a smurf poo album, one RISK and the other one REMAINS, when thrash metal was not popular anymore and they tried new things. They lost many fans but today, both bands are again kicking ass, MEGADETH with ENDGAME(of course, thrash metal is popular again and its not old fashion to thrash again today. Sad world) and ANNIHILATOR with their new album. I will say MEGADETH but i like JEFF more then MUSTAINE

DETH!

Megadeth

I like 'em both a lot. Both have had mis-steps, both have released fantastic albums.

Megadeth just because I LOVE Megadeth

same here

Megadeth blows Annihilator away! I cant get into Annihilator that much.Other than their first two they are too spotty for me

I guess Megadeth. It's really hard to choose between the two ,actually.

If Joe sang on all the Annihilator albums they may be closer for me but Megadeth just kills.

Megadave for me.

I love both bands but I think overall I have to choose Megadeth if just for more consistant song writing

DETH by a light year

But Jeff is one of the very best thrash musicians of all-time.

Tough call. But I would go with Megadeth, but I'm only going up to "Rust In Peace" and "Carnival Diabolis" for Annihilator.

So, Megadeth.

I've been thinking about trying out some Annihilator. Are they similar in sound to Megadeth? I'm very picky about my thrash, I don't like some of the more extreme stuff like Slayer but I love Megadeth, Metallica, Anthrax, etc.
